bravenewworld | A Musical Practice

Who: The Love Live! Girls, anyone who lives at Hikawa Shrine, and anyone leaving and entering the shrine! And stalkers. There are stalkers.
What: Practice for performing on stage! Their first practice ever.
When: Sometime in the afternoon, after school is over.
Where: Hikawa Shrine, Union.
Summary: Honoka has finally managed to amass a group of people to get together as a little musical group to perform. They are going to try to practice together for the first time, and that could go any number of ways.

"Hello everyone!" She shouts once all the girls who she expected to come to practice arrive. "I wasn't sure where we could practice, but I'm so glad Rei let us come here and use the courtyard! So!"

She stands, feet at shoulder width, in front of the girls, looking determined as ever.

"We'll do some singing first! And after a little break, we'll try dancing! Someone will need to clap for us to keep time, but we can alternate who does that so everyone gets to practice dancing. And then! We can get something to eat when we're done! If there's someone you don't know, get to know them a little bit before we begin our practice!"

"Okay! Let's start!"

[Well. He was used to strange things, but having a group of performers in the courtyard of the Shrine you lived at was definitely... new. Eiji was coming in from work and he passed by the tail-end of the group's practice.]

[He's just going to be over here half way between confusion and appreciation. They were very good! But why where they here?? Rei did not tell him anything about this.]

Eh?

[Ankh sort of descends out of nowhere and drapes himself over Eiji's shoulder.]

So were you aware of the collection of adolescent girls that were going to be prancing and dancing on the front lawn today? Because I sure as hell wasn't.

[And Rei meanders up a moment later, eyes more or less focused on the singers than on her cousin and the shitbird.]

Did I not tell either of you? Honoka-chan and her friends are going to be using the courtyard to practice from time to time.

[And this was somewhat deliberate, since...Ankh needs to be around more people.]

[Oh. Hello Rei. Eiji looks at the gaggle of performers and then back at Rei.]

No... you definitely didn't say anything to me about it.

[He suspects that was on purpose, though. He's onto you.]

[Ankh makes a distinct tch of a sound, tossing his head, and hunkers down a little against Eiji's shoulder.]

Not like that's something you should tell people that live in your Shrine or anything. Completely slipped your mind.

[Rei smirks to herself, eyeing the pair of them.]

It did. I've had a busy few weeks, you know. But Honoka-chan and her friends are really nice. I actually think they have a lot of talent, and isn't part of being a spiritual leader nurturing talent where you see it?

[And foisting excitable girls onto Ankh...]

[She saw him during her practice, and she made sure to go greet one of their new fans immediately!]

Hi! I'm Honoka Kousaka, did you like watching us?!

[Oh goodness. He blinks at her owlishly and smiles. She's um. Very energetic.]

Ah- you were all very good!

Thanks! We want to put a lot of energy into our song, so then people can really enjoy it!

[All that musical connectivity stuff you know blah blah]

We're trying to get a show together! Do you think you would come?

[ Completely focused on practice like she was Kotori missed most of her surroundings, spectators included. It's only natural to put lots of effort when you are a novice after all.

She notices the man's startled gaze only after practice is over and the fact, well, startles her back. She haven't really thought about fans yet. She gives him a nervous smile from the distance and waves her hand a bit.]

[Oh no, he didn't mean to startle her. He waves both his hands and smiles back.]

Don't mind me! I was just curious about what was going on.

[He kind of lives here.]

[There's an irritated bird guy kind of hanging on Eiji's shoulder, and he watches the exchange between Kotori and the vagrant with dull interest before calling out.]

Yeah, what is all this, anyway?

[Unknown man number one seems friendly enough for Kotori to relax a bit. This is a good thing because otherwise the angry birdy stare would have bothered her more.]

We were practicing singing and dancing! Rei-- I mean the priestess! let us use the shrine.
